A great example of how to write a late season character. The writers never act like he's as close to the characters who've been together for years or give him unnecesarry relevance in the plot but he's still a funny and likeahle character who fits in well with the original cast.

[@scruffd0g193]

So true Parks and rec did the later seasons so much better than the office when Steve left. And I loved the office but let’s be real the show kinda stunk once Steve carrell left.

[@toddgaak422]

No. He's awful, and painfully unfunny. I skip over any part with him. Ugh.

[@Andrew-og7li]

funny? yes. likeable? no. but to each their own.

[@BillSullivanReal]

@@toddgaak422why did you click on this video

[@cheri31]

It was also amazing how they foreshadowed his ending from his very first appearance. I just did a binge watch these last two weekends and you can tell how well constructed his storyline was.

[@BlackDiamond2718]

My favorite is always “LOOK AT ME!”. Andy’s reaction and the fact that he stands there staring at him before he yells.

[@chuucake]

"i have a medical condition alright, and its called caring too much.. and its INCURABLE" 😂

[@CashRulez5291]

Also I have eczema

[@simonf9160]

Craig is a prime example of how to introduce a great character in a late season of a show

[@MrsMacLover]

"...and she drove me here!" the delivery 😂

[@pat2rome]

The outtakes of that scene are even better, they keep making him repeat it.

[@Pagliacci_Rex]

You can really hear that Southern accent. Sounds like he should be asking for a mint julep and complaining about the heat.

[@Jetrowdy]

The “Tom’s Bi” joke still gets me everytime 😭😭😭

[@hippinoire]

the "WHO EVEN ARE YOU?!?!?!?!?" to tom was so funny

[@thedoctor4327]

Love that moment where he puts April in her place about all she accomplished at the Parks Department. IMO it’s comparable to Jen Barkley giving a tough love motivational speech to Leslie to inspire her after the recall vote

[@yupablan]

This! A good reality check in both cases.

[@JohnSmith-bn5mi]

I loved Craig. So intense and passionate and psychotic.

[@kipess7156]

I love how Typhoon gently giggles at his trout comment on the plane. That's true love.

[@WJen8]

I used to temporarily lower the volume whenever I saw Craig 😂

[@Greendalewitch]

"Fourteen local artists have signed up to show their work. It was going to be fifteen but then this one guy described himself as Jackson Pollock escue and I told him that's finger painting for adults and I HATE IT"

[@naterrey]

Just now realizing that Craig came up with the name Johnny karate huh...

[@sabrinas.5072]

It's a biggie!!

[@christopherscotts5797]

The fact that I memorized most of these But my favorite will always be "Excuse me! Who even are you?!"

[@AleksanderLydkunst]

EVERY. SINGLE. CLIP…. Meme potential 😂😂😂

[@sgak]

SHE DROVE ME HERE!!!

[@NerdyCatCoffeeee]

"AND THEY WERE ROOMMATES!!!"

[@CS-er3ib]

Congratulations...I suppose... Typhoon just chuckles at Craig's outbursts lol.

[@zongmuas]

its called CARING TOO MUCH!! 😂

[@calebsoria1777]

6:57 one simple talk about, Europe and he’s his best man

[@fubuki5hiro764]

Craig is sooo cutteee. Would love to have a friend like him. Definitely not as enemy 😂

[@cheri31]

I understand why people don’t like Craig but here are my thoughts. Craig, whether you like him or not, has one thing that a lot of the characters - he starts off being really good at his job. He cares about it and he’s talented. I think he represents a sort of person who, while maybe not likable, will always do his best and he’s actually very good at what he does and actually treat his coworkers pretty well. He yells at them, yes, but it’s not maliciously and people understand that when they work with him. This series is a satire, but there’s truth in someone being so good at their job and being so sincere in how they treat you, good or bad, that despite not liking them, you still respect them.

[@globbyakaweirdjellyguy954]

I love Craig as well as everyone’s reactions to what he has to say, especially Donna’s.😂😂😂❤❤❤ Craig’s outburst about the wine orders is how I’ve felt when getting ridiculous requests at work.😅

[@coralstapilow8240]

His wine recommendations were spot-on though. Guy knows his stuff!

[@kitlee172]

2:50 I quote this a LOT. 😂

[@yupablan]

The part about his trigger words kill me 😂😂😂😂

[@bluishblow]

i hate it how he is so relatable

[@amberbsjc1395]

I want to be a Spanish man named Terrance, but that didn't happen 😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 I love Craig, he's gold.

[@mucielago619]

There’s so much pumpkin it’s like a Charlie Brown Halloween special!

[@noice5892]

I could watch this over and over for 45 minutes No an hour A full hour

[@cyberphantom99]

He guy maybe ruled by his emotions but man does he know how to channel them right.

[@SuperAKA23]

This guy is human Lemongrab

[@chuucake]

craig is such a mood

[@ScottieMacF]

I thought it was good that they gave us Craig in small batches. He was hysterical in that way, but if it was more common he'd get annoying.

[@McShag420]

Having actually met a person exactly like this in real life, I can tell you, it's only fun on the screen. When you have to endure this exact person screaming the entire night, once is enough, trust me.

[@jawbone78]

The only characters on the show that wouldn't be just as insufferable in real life are Ann and Ben. Maybe Gerry.

[@bulrawg_bot]

I totally forgot about Ron being Typhoon’s best man. That’s so funny

[@yurimatheus3641]

After Ron, Craig is my favorite

[@tiff_marie88]

“Have you not lost it?”

[@wolverinex777]

ahaha donna’s medication quote… i want to ask this to so many people😂

[@jcompton3947]

Can we get a Herman Lerpiss compilation? Just a ton of character development there. People forget he was the first person to announce that they were "in" when Leslie/Ron came up with the plan to save JJ's/get the National Park from Gryzzl.

[@mjw9310]

Took me a minute to like Craig, but I love him now. 😄 Some of the best lines.

[@BiancaVie]

“I sound like someone’s cousin ‘Craig,Craig’….” 😂😂😂😂😂

[@V4Vonnie]

Am I the only one reading Craig as neurodivergent?

[@adreyianiataylor8706]

My favorite line is excuse me who even are you? !!! 😂😂😂 I die laughing every time I rewatch this episode.

[@mindful_clip]

Super under-rated.

[@ChronikTheory]

Billy Eichner is one funny dude.

[@userofinternetmorepending6296]

Have you not lost it😅

[@allalone1995]

Go with me here, there is something in his mannerism and delivery that makes me think that him and Kathryn Hahn’s character are at least cousins.

[@MrRiddler6]

What kind of monster orders Red with fish.

[@ClashClash89]

The bushdoctor prescribes 3g of any strong indica per day to Craig middlebrook.

[@ronaldoortiz1469]

I loved Greg ❤

[@sjferguson]

I think his character is hilarious 😂

[@vivianaespinoza5281]

she like Mrs chesterfield from Jessie and by the way at 2:47 that’s how I imagine Mrs chesterfield looking like when I first saw Jessie

[@95kuumakana]

LOOK AT ME!

[@mrcali68]

Johnny Karate and hs magical guitar ...stick.

[@paulsmithspearlywhites8888]

Kinda gives me John Mulaney vibes

[@raeven358]

he's like me fr tho, but on the inside.

[@IwaanuhReel]

He's Schmitt from The New Girl with Zoey D.

[@Teachernyc]

Sam Kinison vibes.

[@grahammarkhorn]

I live in the EU and were obv backward from a tv pov......but damn between this guy and Mme Calamezzo Im seriously thinking a relocate might be on the cards!!!!

[@floruhls9418]

"I want to throw up and kill myself!" is something that speaks to me on a spiritual level.

[@arvinbuenaagua5161]

Big dark Peewee Herman

[@Theliquidmonkey]

Was that the Guy from Bros?

[@keith_5584]

Excuse me, who even are you?

[@Kellen_Quigley]

For years I've seen people say they despise Craig and he's the least liked regular character, and I just don't get it. As with pretty much every character on the show, he's an exaggeration of Eichner's public persona and is played so perfectly and hilariously every time.

[@mr.balloffur]

This character almost ruined the show thank God he wasn't in it too much

[@has2ah261]

Strongly agree

[@axelscrivener9711]

Is it Craig or Creg?? It sounds like they're all saying Creg 🤔

[@danielkelso1524]

I am confused by the comments. This was the absolute worst character on PnR. But, he was a genius on Difficult People.

[@heyo423]

He is seriously so annoying, I hate him!

[@m.christopher8824]

Hands down the worst character on the show ever

[@travisolson9413]

Sorry, but I never liked this guy. He's just too over the top. I get that some of you think he's a great addition, but I never thought he fit in. Curious as to why you all like him so much? Is it because of his energy? Or do you just like the actor? I am missing it somehow, but I see that a lot of people enjoy Craig. I guess I just don't.

[@HoTrEtArDeDcHiXx]

And I presume there’s a reason for bringing this up again 🙄

[@sa34w]

Craig is just the best satire representation of woke people

[@jawbone78]

Lol wut? Imagine having such a terminal case of brainworms that you see Craig and think "that's a satire on wokeness". Name a single way that Craig is more woke, or more representative of woke people, than Leslie, Ann, Ben, Chris, April, or Donna. Or even just literally anything about him that's "woke".

[@rh661]

Uugh! Worst character ever. 👎

[@mattvgyo]

Not a fan. Craig was easily the worst character on the show. He has one trick: start sentence at normal volume and then rage scream at the end. Not funny. He is the celery of desserts. Zero stars.

[@dwapo]

Ruined every scene he was in.

[@TheDarkbluerock]

I'm curious to know as to why you think so. You are the first person I see not liking the character.

[@dwapo]

@@TheDarkbluerock Canonical, over the top LGBTQ pedantic drama queen that was not a great fit in general, let alone if you think in the context of where he came from as an Eagletonian, where soft jazz plays in lavender cladded prison cells. No work environment with exception maybe to late 90s wall street trading floor would tolerate anyone, no matter how invaluable of an employee they might be, to scream every sentence. To me personally, the character was unlikeable, unfunny and just felt off in each scene, screaming aside. If you like him, great, I’ll just skip it, thank you.

[@MandelaDefect]

Daddy Chill ✋🏻 not a one of these characters would survive in a real work environment. Every character is a satire in the extreme.

[@sean8024]

Hated him too ur not alone in this 🙏

[@SubsT2023]

Lol

[@tommymiddlefinger1283]

"Somebody follow me, I'm distraught!" 🤣

[@thedukeofchutney468]

Craig is what I’d call aggressively supportive.

[@hydra70]

I like the detail that old Craig on the futuristic airplane gets white wine with his fish.

[@seanduffy1420]

Well what kind of monster would order red with fish? (I’m serious)

[@renatocorvaro6924]

@@seanduffy1420 Someone who doesn't let snobby fakes tell them what to like. Truly, only the worst kind of person.

[@Iamaperson590]

​@@seanduffy1420well I don't eat fish but I hate white wine and love red wine lol so if I had to eat fish and I had to pick red or white wine, I will would def go with red 😂

[@syntaxusdogmata3333]

I wish I could get away with Craig's line deliveries at my job. 😆

[@davidvaldezjr5546]

Same.

[@Stenorfly]

"I have a medical condition alright it's called CARING TOO MUCH ! AND IT'S INCURABLE !!!" His best line

[@dabeastfromdaweast9788]

This man used to annoy the piss out of me but I swear to God he gets funnier every rewatch

[@darkmatter5940]

He's quite... PASSIONATE

[@Pagliacci_Rex]

"I know it's not ideal, but it's who I am!" Same, buddy, same.

[@amyourpapi23]

Probably the best added side character on this show. He's amazinh!!!

"Why are my accomplishments always overshadowed?! ..."congratulations" i suppose...."

[@xaviermaldonadodegomendirr6404]

I just love that Craig is great at his job and eventually came to lead the department

[@yannickdrmda5295]

He's a little too much ok but professionaly, we need a Craig in every work place to get job done and people in line.

[@sashaashby]

pretty much sums up my entire personality..

[@BluGray365]

I only wish we got Craig earlier

[@cece8095]

Okay whoever wrote this guy in needs to get suspended. This guy has got to be the worst comedy actor I’ve ever seen. Unfunny & cringe. This was bad. His acting just diiiid noOot fit lol

Donna and Craig: The duo I never knew I needed.

Craig sure is a piece of art work 😅

Also he has Excema

[@jacejacobs4044]

My boss compared me to Craig, specifically the “I have a medical disease…it’s called CARING TOO MUCH. And it’s INCURABLE.” Idk if that’s a compliment but it’s very accurate 😂

[@DarkRealmComics]

This is satisfying for me as I have to deal with annoying people every day and I wanna scream but I won’t

[@StevenEMurphy]

Never liked him

[@TCB405]

Bro out of all gay characters in TV shows and movies Craig is the funniest
